Question

the length and breadth of a rectangle are 25cm and 15cm find the ratio of its breadth to its perimeter​

Answer 1

GIVEN THAT

• Length of the rectangle = 25 cm
• Breadth of the rectangle = 15 cm

TO FIND

• Ratio of breadth and perimeter

FORMULA USED

• Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(L + B)

SOLUTION

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(L + B)

• 2 ( 25 + 15 ) cm
• 2 × 40 cm
• 80 cm

So, Perimeter of the rectangle is 80 cm

Now,

Ratio of rectangle's breadth and perimeter is

• 15 ÷ 80
• 3 ÷ 16
• 3 : 16

So, the ratio of breadth and perimeter

is 3 : 16.
